Orbi RBR50 Mesh performance issues
Hi guys, I hope all of you are well and safe.
I'm facing a performance issue for a while in my home network. I have a RBR50 + 2 RBS50 (version V2.5.1.8) and 1 RBW30 (version
V2.3.5.6). My apar...
Hi FURRYe38,
Thank you for the reply. Yes, I found that enabling it would change the topology and now, I have the sitting room AP connecting to the game room to reach out to the Router. I will adjust the location and move it closer to the game room AP to improve the connection.
Still facing performances issues mainly with 2.4Ghz frequency. I've set the transmit signal to 25% to try to "force" some devices to connect to 5Ghz but no luck. A few devices are still connecting to the 2.4Ghz radio.
Do you have any suggestions regarding the 5Ghz and 2.4Ghz configurations?
Cheers
Not much can be done there. If your environment is noisy, building materials are a factor and wifi devices pick and choose on there own to connect to the best signal, then will be hard to steer devices to 5Ghz. Since your build in made of concrete and steel, this will impact 5Ghz signal which maybe one reason why your devices prefer 2.4Ghz...
I agree with you. Ideally deploying more AP's would help but I have the limitation to pass cables. Making a wired backhaul would help. I will keep trying configs here and in case of any luck I will gladly share with you guys.
Thanks again.
Cheers.
Yes wired ethernet would greatly help with that.
Good Luck.
